Feldenkrais Method

On Mondays I go to a small "cultural" association to do Pilates which I really enjoy despite the fact that it is difficult. Perhpas I like it because it's challenging. I love the environment too: two rooms, low light, few people who call me by my name if you can see what I mean. This small world has nothing in common with gyms that I cannot stand for several reasons (i.e. people sweat like pigs and feel really cool... all muscle and no brain). We are only 5 and A. is a very good teacher and a friendly, warm person as well.

Tonight I went with my best friend to take another course called Feldenkrais. We didn't have a clue about it and it was a pleasant surprise! Wow, I felt so good and we immediately signed up for two months and half course. 4 people and L, the teacher. Honestly, another world opened up: have a look if you are interested in knowing more about it.

Key word is awareness.
ps. to correct is incorrect.

Yesterday

I did my first volounteer experience for an NGO. I don't want to go into details here because we deal with very delicate issues. Let me just briefly say that the theory was all in my head  (I attended a course last year) but after 10 minutes I realized that the reality of things is so different! Don't get me wrong, I loved it and I think I did the right choice: I can do it but I need time to learn and learn and... learn. Usually it takes 4 months to volounteer for them without the support of other skilled people who have been working there for years. The learning process is quite long and I fully understand why now.

I definitely liked it and I'm looking forward to my second experience scheduled for next week. You  know what is weird, though? I am a sociologist but this was the very first time I felt I was actually dealing with "society!. As a volounteer, I'll have to come up with answers in the near future, not only "approaches" to have a better overview of the problem.
